Chapter 221 - Investigating Who?
Chapter 221: Investigating Who?
Xiang Huai blinked.
Xue Xi ignored his flirtatious eyes and continued reading. She’d memorized English vocabulary in the morning and was currently doing Mathematical Olympiad questions.
Since the first day of the camp, everyone in the Golden Autumn Camp had been given a bunch of papers, so they definitely never had to worry about not having any exercise questions to answer.
Xue Xi was doing her questions seriously when a commotion finally came from outside the classroom.
Li Xi was in the midst of a heated discussion. When she heard the commotion, she sat up straight and straightened her back. She looked at the door in high spirits.
After a while, Mr. Wei walked in with a few people.
They were all dressed in working attire and were very united. They were holding recording pens and other materials, as though they were going to record something.
When they entered, the entire room fell silent.
Li Xi gulped and exclaimed, “F*ck, isn’t this commotion too big?”
Why is it like that…?
Does a mere student need such a huge line-up?
When Li Xi exclaimed, the rest of the students also panicked.
Although everyone became afraid after what Li Xi had told them yesterday, some of them did not take it to heart. Was their offense so bad as hitting the teacher? How could the punishment be so serious?
However, seeing this today… Everyone gulped. The student beside Li Xi said, “This… Isn’t this too serious?”
Li Xi became even more elated. She raised her chin very high and was very arrogant. Smiling, she said, “See, I’ve already told you that the Mathematical Olympiad will never allow someone like Xue Xi to exist!”
Everyone nodded.
Li Xuekai frowned too. He could not help but say, “We simply butted heads with the teacher. It’s not that serious, right?”
Seeing that he was speaking up for Xue Xi time and time again, Li Xi immediately said, “Brainiac, stop talking. Isn’t it a big deal to talk back to the teacher?! If you’re let off for talking back to the teacher now, in the future, you might become disobedient and do things that will hurt society even more!”
Li Xuekai: “… Li Xi, you can’t be so rigid. Moreover, Xue Xi rebutted the teacher because the teacher insulted a student first. Plus, Xue Xi did not say anything nasty.”
Li Xi said angrily, “You’re already going so far as to criticize the teacher for being inhuman. Isn’t that too much? Brainiac, aren’t you being too biased?”
She continued discontentedly, “Look at her. She’s flirting with that male student beside her. It’s obvious that she’s abnormal, but you’re actually biased toward her?”
Li Xuekai frowned. “Li Xi, everyone is free to speak up, but I hope you won’t rise to making personal attacks. We are all classmates!”
Li Xi was so angry that she wanted to say something when Mr. Wei said, “Cough, alright. Everyone, quiet down. The organizers of the Math Olympiad group came to the school today to inspect matters and ask everyone a few questions. Don’t be nervous and answer them as you please.”
After saying that, Mr. Wei looked at the Math Olympiad organizers and said, “Go ahead.”
The small group sat on the stage. Someone lifted his head, looking very friendly. It did not seem like they were quarrelsome. He said, “I want to ask some questions about Mr. Li.”
The moment he said this, Li Xi stood up. “Teachers, I think I’m very qualified to speak. Since the day Xue Xi joined the camp, she has been playing some superstitious games. She has proclaimed herself to be a goddess of studies. She wants everyone to touch her and take advantage of her luck. Her attitude is not good!”
Zhang Xiaoxiao suddenly stood up. “That’s not what Xue Xi said. I was the one who shouted it. Everyone was just joking, so why did you take it for real? If I said that you’re a good luck charm and I touched you, does that mean you are also playing with superstitions?”
Li Xi sneered. “I’m telling the truth. Aren’t you going to let others say it? Moreover, it’s not good to create a bad atmosphere because it will affect my studies!”
After saying that, she continued, “And the next day, Xue Xi started to talk back to the teacher openly!”
At this point, the organizing staff immediately asked, “Is Mr. Li that teacher?”
Li Xi nodded. “Yes! It’s Mr. Li! Mr. Li gave an unsolvable question for everyone to answer. Xue Xi got angry when she could not solve it. She told off Mr. Li for being inhuman! This is what all the students present heard!”
Zhang Xiaoxiao immediately said, “It’s not like that. It’s…”
“No? What does that look like, then? She didn’t tell off anyone?”
Zhang Xiaoxiao choked. “Telling off is one thing, but because…”
“No matter what the reason, it’s not right to openly talk back to the teacher in class!” Li Xi’s words suppressed Zhang Xiaoxiao’s words and made her speechless.
The staff asked, “Why did she tell off Mr. Li?”
Before Li Xi could speak, Li Xuekai said, “Because Mr. Li is undeserving of respect when he scolds students.”
Li Xuekai stood up. “Mr. Li has targeted Xue Xi many times in class. There was a classmate who asked to borrow a pen from her, but he did not ask any clarifying questions and instead made Xue Xi stand for the exam for three hours! After that, he insulted Xue Xi many times! It was indeed wrong for Xue Xi to tell off the teacher in the class, but I feel that the situation was special. I think Xue Xi’s circumstances were understandable! If you want to kick out Xue Xi, then you’ll have to kick me out too!”
Li Xi panicked. “Li Xuekai, how can you threaten the teachers?”
Li Xuekai calmly said, “This is not a threat. As a student, she is powerless to resist, and we can only use such extreme actions to maintain justice.”
Li Xi mocked, “Are you crazy?! For Xue Xi’s sake, you’re actually disregarding your future? You’re simply too stubborn!”
The staff interrupted, “Which classmate did he scold?”
Everyone turned to look at Xiang Huai.
Xiang Huai slowly raised his hand and lazily said, “Oh, me.”
The staff saw him and was stunned. He took out a pen and paper to record. “What’s your name? Why did Mr. Li scold you?”
Xiang Huai shot a glance at Li Zixuan and said, “Li Zixuan.”
The staff nodded after writing down his name. Just as he was about to continue speaking, Li Xi could not help but say, “Aren’t you here to investigate Xue Xi’s matter? Why do you keep asking about Mr. Li? Xue Xi is being a prideful person in this camp. This kind of person is indeed unsuitable for the Mathematical Olympiad!”
Before she could finish speaking, the staff interrupted her in surprise. “Who said that we’re here to investigate Xue Xi? We’re actually investigating Mr. Li!”
Li Xi was stunned. Her head was filled with question marks: “?”
She asked in disbelief, “What did you say?!”
Investigating Mr. Li? Did they misspeak?
